You have all done so well to get here and dotn let anybody tell you otherwise! Your determination and creativity has gotten you this far, but can it carry you through to the dream of the Final 2?

The photoshoot you are about to receive is absolutely out of this world! If you thought the bike shoot was tough, think again! This is something we have NEVER done on INTM ever before. I have been waiting for this shoot ALL cycle and it is possibly the most excited I have ever been about a shoot. Prepare to be tested like you have never been tested before. Prepare to go somewhere you never would have travelled. This shoot will test everything you have learnt so far- Beauty, creativity, determination, and above all, the ability to be FIEEEEERRRRCEEEEEE!!!

The photoshoot will be revealed to you in photographic form first, because I dont think I could be as suspenseful with words hehe

Your next photoshoot is....

Keep going kids....

READY???

Thats right folks, you will be doing a beauty shot with dead sea creatures on your heads, as seen on Canada's Next Top Model, Cycle 2!!!!! The choice of what creature you choose is up to you- whether it be a slimy fish, or the exoskeleton of a crustacean. Think very carefully about what you would use- what you have acces to and also what will look amazing. The only requirement is that it is REAL and the shot MUST be of your head and neck ONLY- No shoulders!!!!!. This is the serious end of the competition now, guys. You should all know by now how your choices about composition, hair, makeup, lighting, angle, expression etc can greatly effect your shot and this is a real test of whether you know what looks good, so please make sure you are delivering soemthing you believe you would see in a magazine. Just a reminder, photoshop is allowed for changing contrast and lighting, and I urge you to use it, as it makes your shot more dynamic. If you do not have it, ask around, Im sure people would be happy to help. For this shoot, you may submit as many as up to 50 frames, I will look at as many as I have to to find a great shot, so really use this toy our advantage and try lots of things. The shoots are due on Saturday Saturday Saturday! And if there are any issues, see ME and not the Discussion Board!Enjoyxoxo, Love SweeeeetTyraaaaaa!!!!

Just keep in mind, Chantal, they're dead, they can't hurt you. Try to use that to attempt to reason yourself and calm yourself down.I'm deathly scared of snakes to an insane degree, but if I knew one was dead I would pose with one, for sure.Look at it this way, if you pull if off, you can use your picture as a bold statement.

Dude.This is going to be really tough. In relation to the photoshoot and the competition, yes. But it's also this gut feeling I have. I have a really soft spot for animals and it isn't out for fear but this will be difficult to pull off. Not to mention I'm a vegetarian.I'll just have to work it.

Chantal, i did think very hard about availability and cost of the items you will need, and honestly, there are so many options other than just your regular fish or your crabs or your lobster or your octopus!
